James Harden posts emotional farewell message for Dwyane Wade, Wade responds
James Harden and Dwyane Wade faced off each other for the last time in their professional career as the Rockets edged the Heat 121-118.
Harden was once again on fire tonight, a day after his 30 point streak came to an end. The Beard managed to score 58 points and 10 assists.
While Harden’s gameplay was the highlight of the night, one moment between Harden and Wade at the end of the game caught the imagination of all onlookers.
The duo exchanged jerseys, with both players having some kind words to say to each other before they bid one final goodbye on court.
James Harden is a gotdamn marvel. He just consistently makes the unreal totally realistic.
Unbelievable what he's done, and continues to do, this season.

James Harden has been on fire with his offense this season and would be hoping that he can carry on this form during the business end of the season too.
Chris Paul too had some brilliant words for Dwyane Wade and came up with an amazing Instagram post for him.
